Long Shadows on the Villa

13 03 2007

I have been under the weather and it has been too long since I have blogged. But I’m finally back to painting again and it feels good! This is a painting fresh off the easel of beautiful Lake Como. This was one of the views from our hotel balcony.

The painting measures 30×40″ and is oil on canvas. I did watercolor sketches of our views and took many pictures. But I also spent a good deal of time just sighing and looking and drinking it all in. Every evening the light differed and provided me with a slightly different spectacle.

Thank you so much Michele! It means much coming from una donna italiana-americana! I’m dreaming of my next trip to Italy…when are you going back?

Hugs,
Jennifer

Hi Jen, I love this painting! Way to make it look easy! God bless and protect your new business; may it grow and flourish and may it fill your lives with joy and abundance.

Jason and Deborah,
Thank you sooo much for your wonderfully supportive comments about this piece! I don’t know if I’d call it easy, but I did look at this scene so often and so lovingly that I felt like I was “in the flow” when I painted it. Y’all need to come over and see us if you can pull yourselves away from your own booming art business!

Many hugs,
Jen
